In New York City, a young boy named Neil loved to look up at the night sky. He was fascinated by the stars, planets, and the vast universe. Neil's mother was of Puerto Rican descent, connecting him to the rich Caribbean culture. While many kids his age played sports, Neil spent his time at the Hayden Planetarium, dreaming of becoming an astrophysicist. Some people told him that kids from his neighborhood didn't become scientists, but Neil refused to listen. He studied relentlessly, asking questions about how the universe worked. Today, Neil deGrasse Tyson is one of the most famous scientists in the world! He helps millions of people understand the beauty of space. Neil's story teaches African and Caribbean children that curiosity is a powerful tool. No matter what your background is or what others say, if you follow your passion and keep asking questions, you can literally reach for the stars.
